(please note I'm crossposting this email to bazaar and mercurial mailing list)

I'm on windows 2000 (as user w/o admin privileges), I have downloaded
the last packag for windows and trying to install I got the error "You
must be logged in as an administrator when installing this program".

Some questions:

(1)
there is a way to install/unpack the package on my work machine (NO
admin privileges)???
I thought to do an installation on my home machine, and "move" the
installation dir to my work machine...

(2)
there are (big and/or subtle) problems to store a repo on a FAT32
formatted usb key and another repo on a network disk (without an
assigned unit letter)???


PS
subversion served me well for many months (unpack as user, fat32 and
network storage) but it's not a dvcs, and it doesn't fit my needing
anymore...
